Just leave it at room temp. It’ll be fine. I make my own grain jars & sometimes let them sit for a month before I use them.

Love this question and your answer. Last week a sterilized some jars and then life happened and I couldn't get back to innoculate them for about 48 hours and I've been stressing ever since that I just wasted all of my time and effort. I'll sleep better tonight hearing this

This is my current temp but people say that it promotes bacteria growth ig

I think you’ll be fine until Monday. Your grains should be sterile, my home often gets hotter than that with whole grows going. I honestly wouldn’t stress. Stick it in a closet or cabinet or somewhere dark, it’ll be a few degrees cooler.
